After solving the Yangtze River incident, Li Dandao was relieved.

Mr. Xu's trip was already complete, and as for the assessment mentioned above, Li Dandao naturally passed it.

I’m afraid that it won’t take long before Li Dandao will receive the will of the Heavenly Court, from the fifth-grade heavenly capital to the fourth-grade, or directly from the fourth-grade.

The third grade is unlikely. Unless Li Dandao's cultivation level breaks through to the Yang God, that is, the realm of gods, he can ascend directly, although he only ascends to the Heavenly Court, not Daluo Tian.

Master Xu Tian also injected a fairy talisman into Li Dandao's Tianxing Sword. This is the dragon-slaying immortal talisman, which can bring greater pressure to dragon creatures.

Because Master Xu Tian was sent to the earth, he couldn't stay for long, so he asked Li Dandao directly and said, "What are your doubts about your cultivation? If you have no doubts, I will go back."

When Li Dandao heard this, he was naturally the first question to ask about the "three religions merged".

Master Xu Tian was immediately embarrassed because he didn't know how to answer this question.

So he asked instead: "What did you think?"

Li Dandao spoke: "There is no obstacle at all when Confucianism and Taoism merge. After all, the two have been running in for thousands of years. It can be regarded as having me in you and I have you in me."

"But the time for Buddhism to enter the Middle Land is relatively short. Although it grows rapidly, it is not the source of the locality. I have obtained the real body relics, which can be said to be the source of Buddhism. But those relics are not practiced by me, but by Sakyamuni."

"So I plan to practice Taoism and Confucianism. Although I also practice Buddhism, I practice it with heretics and use tools to replace my body. It is just a tool of my own birth, just like a Tai Chi pattern."

Li Dandao metaphorically said: "Tao is mysterious, Confucianism is white. And Buddhists are the line that divides yin and yang."

"And the concepts of Buddhism's past, future, present, generation, existence, destruction, emptiness, and other concepts coincide with the ancient "Corpse" theory. The vast subtleties of it are not inferior to the two schools of Taoism and Confucianism."

Li Dandao spoke, "So I want to refine a heretic weapon to attain Buddhahood. This weapon is derived from the cave heaven, which is the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss."

Li Dandao scratched his head: "It means to correspond to the crow of white bones and roosters."

"But there has now become the underworld and the underworld of Yama."

After Li Dandao finished speaking, Master Xu Tian said, "Maybe you have to go to Taiyi to save the Ku Tianzun in this matter, and let the Tianzun take you to find Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva."

"Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva?" Li Dandao was confused.

"Although Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is a Buddhist, my Taoist sect is not actually rejected." Master Xu Tian said.

"Sure enough to move is as deep as the earth, and meditation is as deep as a secret treasure." Li Dandao murmured.

Xu Tianshi said: "Although he is in Buddhism, he has also practiced and proved the two schools of Confucianism and Taoism."

"Before he attained enlightenment, he dug his eyes, broke his arms, and cured his father, which is considered to be a filial piety to establish virtue."

"The great vow, if he vows not to become a Buddha without being empty in hell, it is considered a statement."

"Sitting in hell and saving evil spirits is considered to be a meritorious service."

Li Dandao murmured: "Can you still calculate this?"

"This is the connection between the three religions. Is it the same thing to save the Heavenly Lord of the Taiyi? Hearing the sound of the suffering, he stays in hell..." Xu Xun said: "Even I am now in the underworld, there is a heavenly Lord incarnation, whose function is to save the suffering and eliminate the demise."

"According to your ideas, it must be right. Whether it is Confucianism, self-cultivation and governance of the country and peace of the world, or Taoism, the great way is not far away from others. Or Buddhism, if you want to save others, you will first pass yourself, turn into a boat, and cross the other side."

"It's just that you should abandon those empty and superficial things and grasp the core of it."

"The three religions can be integrated in this way. If you insist on integrating the doctrines, then Taoism is not Taoism, Confucianism is not Confucianism, Buddhism is not Buddhism, let alone Confucianism, and Confucianism is also divided into many sects, my Taoism is also divided, and Buddhism is also divided..."

"So we should not capture everything, but we should capture some points."

Master Xu Tian is worthy of being a big shot who ascended to the house. Although he has never had a fellow practitioner in the Three Sects, he still gave key opinions after listening to Li Dandao's narration.

"There must be some of his Buddhists who can quickly take root in the Middle Earth, which caters to our local thoughts, and there must be commonalities in it!"

Li Dandao suddenly had an idea: Is it the commonality of philosophy?

Or say "to understand the mind and see the nature?"

Buddhist "compassion".

Confucian "benevolence".

Taoism's "Precious Life"

These things kept colliding in Li Dandao's mind, and it seemed that something was about to come out.

It was something that jumped out of religious shackles.

It seems to be a truth essence.

But the mysterious is mysterious, and the weak is also empty.

It seems to make people understand it, but it seems to be paradoxical.

"I don't know its name, but I strongly call it Tao."

Li Dandao once again entered the state of unity between man and nature.

Xu Tianshi looked like a child could teach.

But Li Dandao quickly withdrew again.

Because the core is wrong.

There is nothing wrong with Confucianism and Taoism. The core is the word "Tao", although the understanding of the great Tao is different.

But this is not the core idea of ​​Buddhism.

The Buddhist idea is "dependence and emptiness"

The key is to the word "empty".

This emptiness can be equivalent to the Taoist word "no".

Although Taoism says: "All things in the world are born from existence and existence are born from nothing, they are all the core ideas."

The core idea is "Tao", the Tao that "I don't know its name, but I strongly call it Tao."

The core idea of ​​Buddhism is: there is no unique thing in the world, and there is no constant thing. Everything is born from the combination of causes and conditions.

Combined with the "Twelve Relationships" theory, the word "cause and effect" can also be derived.

This theory is neither idealistic nor materialistic, but the combination of mind and matter, thus achieving a state of "harmony". Through the fruits of all things, there must be a cause, and the Buddha can know everything in the ten directions of the world and the past and future.

This is somewhat similar to the "deduction" of Taoism.

But the core is different, Tao is the source, and dependent origination and emptiness are the process. The two are essentially different.

However, although the essence is different, it also gave Li Dandao an idea.

Reverse from the process is also the source.

And starting from the source, there can be countless processes.

The novelist in his previous life summarized the three thousand avenues and eight hundred side doors, and every line can prove the truth, but it is not aimless.

Therefore, although it soon emerged from the process of unity between man and nature, it was still possible to obtain some inspiration.

Master Xu Tian asked, "How?"

Li Dandao smiled and said, "It's better for Master Xu to be on the sidelines."

Li Dandao beat the snake and put on the stick, and called Master Xu directly.

Master Xu Tian did not resist: "Is there anything else to ask?"

Li Dandao then asked about the details of the Five Qis and the Three Treasures of the Essence, Qi and Spirit. If you practice the Golden Pill, it is impossible for the three flowers to gather together. So how can you produce the Taoist fruit?
